Frida Kahlo, Mexico



FRIDA KAHLO - Autorretrato con Bonito (1941)

I like art. I like receiving art postcards. I like receiving images of famous people. And i love Mexico! So really, there is nothing not to be liked about this card :=D
Frida Kahlo de Rivera was a Mexican painter best known for her self-portraits. In her homeland her work has been celebrated as emblematic of national and indigenous tradition, and by feminists for the depiction of the female experience and form. She had a turbulent life, what with marrying the famous artist Diego Rivera, and suffering from numerous illnesses. The movie Frida from 2002 was, I thought, very interesting to watch - both informative and emotional, and beautifully picturesque :)
Big thanks to els for this private swap :)
